Wheel Recommendations For a Cab

Looking into picking up a silver 997 Carrera S Cab. Any wheel recommendations? I am thinking 19" TechArt. Any pictures would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I really like the look of Techart's, but keep in ming they are pretty heavy.

Dymag . The carbon /spoke wheel would look awesone on the silver plus they are ultra light .

We just recently put a set of our RS1 forged wheels on a blue cab that looks stunning in my opinion. The color combo takes a little getting used to but we can customize the wheels to your liking.

Dymag's look very nice, but not the look I want. Tom your photos aren't working.

Techart is a good choice although I would go with a custom 3 Piece wheel. That way you can design the wheel in the right finish and style and set your car apart a bit.

Here are some options:

Vorsteiner V-301



360Forged CF5ive

Nice. I was thinking about the P40. Don't these wheels go for $10k or over? Also what are the weight savings from stock?

Dymag.... they're 3 piece right?....so it's pretty easy to get a bent outer rim fixed...right?
Seriously...pretty nice, but unless all the money Washington is printing is going to fix the deteriorating roads in these part, I would have to stay w/something a tad more solid (or easy to repair).

Advice.....get what looks good to you.
Incredible choices out there.....don't be overly concerned w/weight unless the car will be crossed or tracked.

Champion, Neez, Volk monoforged wheels, light, strong, look good. I'd buy one of those three, or BBS.
